Visitors gather beneath the Hanyang bridgehead of the Yangsigang Yangtze River Bridge in Wuhan, Hubei province, on Thursday, as a heavy downpour creates a dramatic "rain curtain" cascading from the bridge. The city recorded 138 mm of rainfall from 8 pm on Wednesday to 3 pm on Thursday, breaking its April single-day record and marking the earliest rainstorm to date, according to the Hubei provincial meteorological department.
